A patched up Farnborough side make the journey to the League’s basement team on Saturday (12 April) to face a Dorchester side who haven’t won in 10. (Skrill South League Fixture – Kick off 3.07pm)

Boro’s improved performances on the road was followed by a mesmerising 4-2 win over Bishop’s Stortford last time out, so another three points remains the target for Boro to consolidate a respectable mid-table position.

Speaking after the 4-2 home victory over Bishop’s Stortford on Tuesday, Spencer Day said: “They have has some very good results – I think they’re right down with us in the budget stakes; they’ve got a very young team like we have. We’ll be going without [Adam] Doyle, without [Alan] Inns who’s suspended, we’re going to be incredibly young, no doubt about that – possibly the youngest side we’re ever going to put out but we’ll take a lot of belief.

“We’re hoping that JJ Hooper might be in contention, there’s a possibility that Darryl Siaw might be in contention, Harry Lee’s probably another week but you never know, he’s young – that’s the advantage of having the youngsters; they do heal slightly quicker.

“A difficult game, they are fighting for their lives and they’ve had some very good results recently, they really have had some cracking results, they work very hard for the manager and it will be a big ask again with a lot of travelling to do. We’ve got the be focused, as we were tonight [vs Bishop’s Stortford] and hopefully we can go and get another three points.

“They’re right at the rock bottom at the budget like we are and that’s what happens. They’ve had some good results at home and I think Phil [Simkin] has done a great job, I’m afraid it very much is the have and have not’s in this division financially.

“We know it will be a very tough ask but our away form in the last four to six weeks I think generally has been excellent, even when we’ve lost like we did on Saturday [at Weston-Super-Mare] – I thought that was undeserved, we didn’t deserve to lose at Gosport either. We’re playing pretty well for such a young side and such a small squad.

“We can go there positive, it’s another long journey, we learn a really harsh lesson on Saturday at Weston, we should have been three or four up at half time but a mistake cost us and we ended up losing the game. Generally [our away form has been] very, very good – another win I’m sure will do it, another point or two probably will. We’ve got four games to go, I’m just delighted we put on a good home performance tonight [vs Bishop’s Stortford] for the fans that turned up so let’s get as many points as we can.”

Captain Alan Inns sits out through suspension (the first match of three), although this could be used as time to recover from the rib injury which he played through on Tuesday evening.

Opposition Camp

Playing on home turf so far this season, Dorchester have played 18 and of that total, they have won 3, drawn 4 and lost 11, and have only managed 16 goals which is the lowest total in the league. A deflated Dorchester lost 2-0 at Hayes & Yeading last time out on Saturday, making it back-to-back games without scoring a goal, and highlights of that game can be viewed by clicking here.

Ahead of the game, Magpies boss Phil Simkin told the Dorset Echo: “We have got to make sure that we don’t take our foot off the gas and we push hard right to the end. I want us to put on a show for our supporters at home. It’s going to be a difficult two or three weeks for all of us and we’ll need all the help we can get.

“Should things go as expected and we go down then we’ll have to deal with it. It’s happened to better clubs than us and, when you look at it in the cold light of day, it is more important that the club exists rather than what league it is playing in.

“If we go down, we’ll go down fighting, and if we are playing in the Southern Premier next season then we’ll do everything we can to get back. We are already planning for next season. I shall be looking to strengthen the squad considerably in the summer.”

Defender Mark Jermyn returns from suspension for the hosts and there is a chance that top scorer Nick Crittenden will be fit.

Young midfielder Dan Way is set to be included the match-day squad but Jamie Gleeson remains sidelined with a knee problem.
